The priority for Juventus remains the signing of a new forward, but the Serie A defending champions are also working to reinforce their defense, and one of their main targets is Torino 24 year old Angelo Ogbonna: according to Tuttosport, the bianconeri’s Sports Director Fabio Paratici has met Giovanni Branchini, agent of the Italy international: the granata would prefer to sell the player abroad than to their city rivals, but Juve could offer some interesting players like 23 year old striker Ciro Immobile, 22 year old midfielder Luca Marrone or 20 year old forward Richmond Boakye; on the contrary, it seems extremely hard for the Piedmontese club to obtain Athletic Bilbao 27 year old Fernando Amorebieta: according to the Daily Express, in fact, the Venezuela international is waiting for a call from Arsenal.
